I have a pair of knee length shorts in a very fine wale corduroy and I think they look cute, so THERE!
Hell, I don't know. If I had wanted schooling, I'da gone to school.

Punishingly Intricate
In an effort to distract myself, I'm obsessing over Hall and Oates again.
Hilariously one of the ukeleleists my band played with last week is obsessed with Hall & Oates! Oates is her dream husband. She did a kickass version of Say It Isn't So on the ukelele.

Now tagless for your comfort.
What makes the slow melt popsicles work? The only ingredient in the list that looks like it might do it is the gelatin.
edit: I read to the end of the list. "Ice structuring protein"?
I think it's probably the gelatin. When they do melt, it's more like jello thank juice.
They are very tasty, though, probably not vegan.

Burrell, do you wear your knee-length shorts with pumps?
(Fashion choice I saw on campus.)

No sumi, I tend to go with slides, crocs, or sandals. I tend to think of shorts as functional rather than fashionable clothing.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hm. Well, he's also not writing about fandom-stuff. But I think that for the most part, the nastiest hate mail I've gotten has been from men. Men will write long essays with examples illustrating how awful and illogical I am and how destructive it is to the site to have someone like me on staff, and how they totally know people who have met me in person and hate me. From women, the hate mail usually has a more, I don't know, officious tone. Like, "I'm just writing to let you and your employers know that you're an evil harpy, thanks."
Maybe the difference is that hate mail from women is at least shorter. Now I'll have to make a spreadsheet....

I don't usually worry about the stumpy. More about whether the shorts make me look like my hips are freakishly hippy. Which knee length shorts often do, the way they're cut. But sometimes they don't.
The stumpy, I just go with.
